Facebook is testing a system that allows users to message themselves their nude photos in an effort to combat so-called revenge porn.

It will store a "fingerprint" of images to prevent any copies of them being shared by disgruntled ex-lovers.

what the fuck is going on

Wait, what?

Quote from DJGrenola:

How would that even work? Like, if I saved my ex's nudes, and then shared them, facebook would just delete them in the messages? What the fuck is even the point, what if I saved them and sent them via text message? AND on top of that, how is facebook going to regulate if they even are your nudes or not? What if I just send the mcdonalds logo to myself?

Actually to be fair, I found out facebook actually has an AI in place that can detect boobs and vaginas. Couldn't even post just regular nudes without facebook being like "Hey, we see a vagina in this picture, you better not post that!"

Jesus why would anyone allow a nude pic of themselves to exist in 2017? It's just a terrible idea.

I'm so frustrated with my sweetie. He got a Scorpio a few days ago and ever since then he has spent 12 hours a day doing nothing but messing around with the display settings on the TV, the console, the receiver, fucking with the remote, replacing cables, etc etc etc screaming 'It's not 4K UHD Ultra!' or some shit like that. He says it's some other kind of 4K, and tbh they all look the same to me. It looks fantastic to the point that I can't even imagine it looking any better. But he insists that it's supposed to look much much better. He says it's broken, but when I suggest returning it he snaps at me. If it's broken then why the fuck would you keep it? it cost $500! I'm so done.

He spends 10x more time talking about the technical aspects and the hardware than actually playing the games. I don't get it.

Might as well get a PC at that point

Opium

true but god I hope he doesn't. i think that will just make him spend way more time and money tinkering and talking about that shit

I literally know nothing about Xbox, do they even have (worthwhile) exclusives?

Opium

Now he's saying that he just figured out that our TV is just 4K, not 4K DR or whatever. Even I knew that. I pointed that out yesterday but he told me I was wrong. So now he's going to want to buy a new tv. We just got these 4K tvs less than a year ago.

Serris

Sounds like he needs a new hobby

Opium

I've been a gamer for my whole life and I don't give two shits about xbox either. He's only been gaming for 3 years and he has become the xbox fanboy from HELL. We have SIX xboxes in the house now. Like I said, he's way more into the technical stuff than the actual games, so if you talk to him about games he just starts talking about how sony and nintendo suck because they don't have RPQ 3PO or some lame shit like that.

I've tried to get him to play some of the most famous and influential games in the world, but all he focuses on are the graphics and immediately wants nothing to do with them.

Serris

Well PCs have so much tinkering to do that he won't have time to play games at all, so that's a bunch of money saved

Opium

2017-11-10 04:49:24 pm

Most games he doesn't really PLAY. He just turns them on and moves the character around and talks about the resolution, etc.

That's a plus but I wonder if he would be upgrading every part of the PC monthly and spend just as much, if not more, money on that.

Well in the worst case you'll have a great PC that can do all sorts of things rather than a shitty console that just collects dust

Opium

2017-11-10 05:02:01 pm

lol and no money.
I just wish he would stop obsessing about the technical stuff and enjoy video games. He also constantly complains about our internet speed. There's nothing wrong with it, it's plenty fast for gaming and we have no issues. He just can't stand knowing that it could be faster.

Hence the new hobby thing, a console won't ever make a tech freak happy

I don't think anything would make him happy for long since it evolves so fast. He's worse than an Apple freak.

I think the reason it bugs me so much when gets like this is because I spent much of my 20's on meth and tweekers get in this mindet called being 'spun' where they obsess on tinkering with stuff and they don't let up for days. That's exactly what he's doing. I got stuck in meth houses with people who acted like that for days and it drove me INSANE, so I just can't deal with it.

i guess it's true that people will just buy a console for no reason other than that it has "gud grafix bro"

I had a similar phase with SD to HD scalers.

Can't promise he'll ever get over it lol
